Question about Gambling websites with Curaçao license using incorrect Merchant Category code (page 303)

Good research , seems like this ain't the first rodeo . They are scammers .so how did it unfold for you or are you still on the hamster wheel , have you escalated beyond?

They all seem to be based in Lithuania inc MyStake chain

Santeda group bv seem to be using alot of these 3rd party merchants who when delving deeper into the owners of these companies and checking their names against company house and affiliate companies you find there is a network of fake companies set up .most of these people behind these companies are mainly Romanian Cypriot or from eastern Europe and have criminal backgrounds and ties.I fail to belive that these gambling sites are unaware of this because if they was and it was putting their business in disrepute then they would stop using them .but obviously they know as they keep using so the churn and profit must be worth the risk as there is no consequence from government bodies as the apple is rotten from core

That is it in a nutshell ! I have payment advice slips from a lot of them all with Lithuanian addresses for varied sites and chains it is all linked and it will be the same rigged games provider server they work from as its always the same pattern some small wins then it takes all the money £30 bonus rounds paying £200 and big customer wins highlighted but lord knows how that is possible ! The netent is 1000% fake games as they are not allowed to run them to certain restricted areas and you can tell the way they run I also noticed with the microgaming ones as well like immortal romance rigged

I emailed sumup and they said my email isn’t registered with them. Do I have to create an account before they help with transaction?

Ok no I never maybe try explaining again the situation

Can you post what you said?

I haven't even raised it with my bank as I feel that I will just get instantly rejected due to the fact that I have got a case with the FO as my bank did not even investigate my claim for chargebacks previously and balaintly lied and continuously lied for months 5 to be exact Long story but let's just say they shot themselves in foot as the incompetence of staff kept contradicting each other and eventually dropped themselves in it and basically lied . So I am waiting for FO and then I am closing the account .hopefully I can try and get some resolution from merchants or sites it's mainly donbet and rolletto and magicwin but not holding my breath but I am thinking about taking legal action against santeda bv wonder if starting a petition up and presenting to the caracaco gambling board for them do something about theses sites using 3rd party merchants something needs doing 🤔

I'll give you one for free(not literally lol) - Payop whom Mystake and Santeda use wound up as a UK company in September 2022. Yet from that date they still took funds from UK residents. This is against the law and is unauthorised financial services(Payment Services are financial services. I can give you any information you need on MyStake and Santeda - I helped someone out with a case with them a couple of years back.

my friend,do you have his email for artstrid.com

support@artstrid.zendesk.com

I sent a few things mainly that its illegal to do gambling transactions with them as per terms you can just add your own take on it but thats the basic technicality of it

do you happen to know contact for BYTE NEWS and PNMM

Appreciated having issues with donbet at mo .they are currently trading on jaz licence which expired back in oct they do not hold valid licence or display any seal .Also in terms and conditions does it state anything about using 3rd party merchants but does state that it process payments by Santeda bv international group .when I used donbet and rolletto I used a new bank card also payments came out as kasia empire, only skins gamestore and formuline ect ect the game i was playing on donbet was awful reels constantly spinning, kept getting kicked off game needing to reload ,being told to log in when I was in middle of game play ,when I got a bonus rounds the game would glitch and reels would continuously spin and lose connection causing me to reload game then I would get nothing in bonus round.so I confronted donbet about the issues

Games licences 3rdparty merchants who have criminal backgrounds and requested a full refund .I also asked for a full transparency of my account and transactions as they need to keep record they refuse to give it to me basically they sent me an generic email saying they are regulated bla bla bla and I can see my transactions on my account and I can cross reference them with from bank statement for authentication and accuracy. I had to laugh as they are not authentic or accurate. Now are they .I emailed them back as they are also aware that they blocked my account as soon as i 1st emailed them so I do not have access to this and if I request they send me this information then they have a legal obligation to oblige.They wrote back and said I have access to my account for 24 hrs to retrieve this information .this was 8 hrs ago and I still do not have access to my account they are taking the mick .I am at my whits end and I am like a bear with a annoying wasp.As I said in one of my previous post my bank contacted me about an attempted transaction from kenya for €750 so my card has only been used on these sites .I now have emptied that account. As soon as the FO has dealt with the case that account will be closed .but SANTEDA INTERNATIONAL LIMITED is shocking scammers

It's a shambles for sure . If these are raised most are absolutely nailed on to win .there is big reluctance to raise them . It's not a legal requirement apparently to raise them but then the fos say if it's good likelihood of succeeding. Total joke they won't respond so the bank should raise them . Best to never ever deal with these companies ever again. Total and utter farce . Revolut are absolutely junk . Hope many more complain and this becomes the new ppi scandal. This could easily be stopped but there is too much easy money the banks know these scam merchants too well they don't seem in any rush to put the brakes on this gravytrain

No but bytes news lead me to hang on 1 sec I will go and get details of what bank sent me

Right bank gave me info on bytes it's sort of a payment processing platform .They gave me the merchant category as educational and the address as 7 bell yard or Rd can't remember as not getting alot of bank now as alot has disappeared but location is London they also provided postcode and some other codes but would not provide actual physical address or name .I just entered postcode and searched for educational services and Arabic international acadamy came up .Then just to be sure I dug a bit deeper on their site to make sure it was them and I found their address printed on one of their certificates lol busted .

we can talk privately?
